During Manufacturing Week, visitors will explore this field through various hands-on activities that will strengthen their understanding of the field and allow them the opportunity to engage with creating their own “garden in a glove” through an assembly-line experience.
The highlight of the week will take place on Friday, March 21, when Arclin will host interactive activity stations, giving kids a hands-on look at the world of chemical manufacturing and engineering. Visitors will dive into the fundamentals of chemistry through engaging acid-base experiments—demonstrating the core chemical processes that drive Arclin’s work every day in creating innovative materials.
“We wanted to develop experiments that connect back to our manufacturing process while showing students that science is all around us,” said Worrell. “We focus on using everyday materials—many of which can be found right in their pantry. For example, students will explore how acids and bases interact by creating mini volcanoes, writing secret messages with invisible ink, and painting with different pH levels to see chemistry in action.”
This event aims to not only provide an engaging way for students to explore
